Approximately 70% of the caloric value of Wood Sorrel is in the form of amino acids. Wood Sorrel is not a complete protein, but if eaten with something that supplies the missing amino acids, it would make a respectable protein supplement.

When in the sprout form, which is always the most nutritious stage in a plant's life, 100 grams of Wood Sorrel provides 4 grams of protein.

Wood Sorrel flowers are, of course, high in carbohydrates (sugar) and as sugar is converted to glucose, which is the brain's fuel, you would definitely be doing yourself a favor by eating as many clover flowers as possible.

So, in a survival situation, you should grab all of the Wood Sorrel you can find, pull up the roots too if possible, and eat it all.

Wilderness Jungle Survival Trekking and Training

As we move further and further away from nature, it seems like a lot of us are interested in finding out if we could actually go backwards and live off of the land... it seems like the latest buzz is doing it with as little as possible, be that in the form of getting lost (survival) or minimalist camping (bushcraft).

You can experience the joy of being able to survive with minimal gear while enjoying one of our survival training courses. Khao Sok is the best place for this combination. Phang Nga Province offers old growth jungle and it's logistically much easier than Khao Sok.

A big part of the trip is jungle trekking. It’s so beautiful here that you’ll want to hike around anyway. During your trekking adventures you’ll learn a lot about the abundant wild edible plants in southern Thailand.
